Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bottle with a rounded bottom provided with a base and more particularly to such bottles intended to undergo a treatment such as pasteurization, freezing, etc. using a heat transfer fluid.
  • bottles are intended to be used in the food, pharmaceutical, industrial, etc ...
  • the bases generally associated with a bottle with a rounded bottom, allow them to remain in a stable position when they are placed on a support.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome this drawback by creating a bottle provided with a passage for a heat transfer fluid between the bottle and its base so as to improve the heat transfer between the heat transfer fluid and the liquid contained in the bottle and more particularly the liquid being in the part of the bottle surrounded by the base.
  • a bottle for pasteurization of the type comprising an attached base secured to it, characterized in that it comprises at its lower part between the base and the body of bottle a passage for heat transfer fluid communicating with the outside and having an inlet area and an outlet area.
  • a bottle with a rounded bottom comprising a side wall and provided with a base having a side wall enveloping said rounded bottom and attaching to a lower part of the side wall of the bottle, a annular support boss and a bottom portion comprising a support zone for the bottom of said bottle, characterized in that said bottle is provided with a passage for a heat transfer fluid situated between the bottle and said base, said passage communicating with the outside by an inlet area and an outlet area, the path of the fluid in said passage partially along the bottom of the bottle.
  • a base for a container with a rounded bottom said container comprising a side wall, said base having a side wall suitable for wrapping, and for fixing to a lower part of the side wall. of the container, an annular support boss and a bottom portion comprising a support area for the bottom of said container, characterized in that said base is provided with an inlet area and an outlet area for a heat transfer fluid, the path of the fluid in the base along the bottom of the container.
  • the bottle or the base for this facilitates the flow of a heat transfer fluid in contact with the lower part of the bottle and therefore improves the heat transfer between the heat transfer fluid and the substance contained in the bottle.
  • the bottle or the base for this facilitates the flow of a heat transfer fluid in contact with the lower part of the bottle and therefore improves the heat transfer between the heat transfer fluid and the substance contained in the bottle.
  • Each of the two embodiments below described creates a passage for a heat transfer fluid, said passage being formed between a bottle and its base.
  • a container or bottle 10 is provided with a base 11.
  • the bottle 10 known per se contains any liquid 12 to be pasteurized, and has a rounded bottom 13 and a cylindrical side wall 14.
  • the base has the shape of a cup having a bottom part, a support boss 17 and a cylindrical side wall 16.
  • the bottom part consists of a central part 15 spaced from the bottom of the bottle 10, surrounded by an annular curved zone 23 defining a support and centering zone for the rounded bottom 13 of the container 10.
  • the annular support boss 17 is pierced at its end by a plurality of orifices 18 allowing the fluid to exit. Said orifices are distributed circumferentially and spaced from a support zone 30 of the boss.
  • the side wall 16 of the base has at its upper part the annular fixing zone 19, provided with a plurality of recesses of axial orientation 20 allowing the entry of fluid.
  • a passage 50 for heat transfer fluid is defined on the one hand by the wall of the bottle between the fixing zone 19, and the support zone 23 and on the other hand by the wall of the base opposite this wall.
  • the recesses 20 alternate circumferentially with reinforcements 21 forming an integral part of the side wall 16.
  • Such a base is intended to be fitted onto the lower part of the bottle 10 and therefore to cover the bottom of the latter.
  • the fixing zone 19 and the support zone 23 combine to keep the bottle 10 in an upright position and center it inside the base.
  • the side wall 16 is, at this location, of greater thickness, so as to thus provide increased mechanical resistance.
  • the attachment zone 19, and more particularly the surface 22 of the reinforcements 21 is intended to come into contact with the side wall 14 of the bottle. This contact is generally reinforced by bonding, welding, clipping or interlocking.
  • a heat transfer fluid flows along the wall 14 of the bottle, enters the passage 50 using recesses 20, then runs along the wall of the bottle between the fixing zone 19 and the support zone 23, to finally move away from the bottom 13 of the bottle, and fall into the boss 17 to be evacuated from the passage 50 by the holes 18.
  • the part of the wall 14 of the bottle lying between the fixing zone 19 and the support zone 23 and surrounded by the base is directly traversed by the heat transfer fluid, which makes it possible to significantly increase the transfer of heat to the liquid located at the bottom of the bottle.
  • the circulation of heat transfer fluid can thus be carried out continuously.
  • the area of all of the orifices 18 of the base is greater than or equal to the area of all of the recesses 20.
  • the base provided with a corresponding bottle can be subjected to other processes than pasteurization, for example freezing.
  • the passage for a heat transfer fluid can also be created not by an arrangement of the base but by an arrangement of the bottom of the bottle itself, described below as a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • a bottle 100 is provided with longitudinal recesses 120 at its lower part. These recesses extend between a cylindrical area 103 and a rounded area 104 of the bottle, and through an annular area for fixing 119 of a base 111 to the bottle.
  • the lower part of the bottle is further provided with a circumferential shoulder 101 defining a support zone for the base 111, of known type, intended to cover the rounded bottom of the bottle, and to be fixed by the area middleman annular fixing 119 to the bottle 100.
  • This base 111 has a plurality of orifices 118 similar to the plurality of orifices 18 according to the first embodiment. This plurality of orifices 118 constitutes an outlet zone for the fluid.
  • the recesses 120 Once in place on the bottle and fixed by any appropriate means thereon (in particular by gluing) the recesses 120 have an upper part 140 located above the junction of the base with the bottle.
  • a passage 150 is thus created for a heat transfer fluid, the inlet area of which is defined between the upper part 140 of the recess 120 and the part of the upper edge 141 of the base opposite the recess 120.
  • the passage 150 for heat transfer fluid meanwhile extends from the inlet zone, along the recess 120, then along a part of the bottom 113 of the bottle, to the zone of exit 118.
  • the recesses 120 made in the bottle 100 prove to be easier to make (because they are made during the blowing of the bottle) than the recesses 20 made in the thickness of the annular zone for fixing the 'base according to the first embodiment.
  • the area of the entry zone of the passage for heat transfer fluid is larger in the second embodiment than in the first embodiment.
  • the recesses 120 of the bottle constitute re-entrant zones, the radial dimension of which is greater than or equal to several times the thickness of the base according to the first embodiment.
  • the recesses 20 made in the base according to the first embodiment are necessarily limited to a fraction of the total thickness of the wall of the base, output that this wall can have adequate mechanical strength, these recesses 20 therefore necessarily constitute an entry area with limited area.
  • the area of the inlet area of the second embodiment is larger than the area of the inlet area of the first embodiment, the flow and circulation of the heat transfer fluid is improved in the second embodiment.
  • one and the other of the two embodiments described makes it possible to create a passage for a heat transfer fluid between a bottle and a base to improve the heat transfer between the heat transfer fluid and the substance contained inside the bottle.
  • the passage for heat transfer fluid has, in addition to an outlet zone produced in the base, an inlet zone, also produced in the base of the bottle below the zone of fixation.
  • the outlet zone of the passage for heat transfer fluid is produced in the central part 15 of the base, and recesses of the type of those described in the second embodiment are made in the bottom part 113 in look of the support zone 123 to allow the circulation of the heat transfer fluid. Similarly, these recesses can be made in the support area of the base.
  • the present invention also includes all variants within the reach of ordinary skill in the art, such as the adaptation of a passage for heat transfer fluid to polygonal containers, to drums made of plastic and / or metallic materials.
